Mike, 

Correction!

 

I DID have a copy of PDF Cracker. I no longer use it. NOW I use PrimoPDF. It
is also a freeware. I use Norton Antivirus and I did not get a warning when
I downloaded it. Try a search for this other program. If you don't find it,
write me and I'll send you a copy.

Dave...

 

"PDF Cracker" sounds like a cool program, so I went on line and started a
free download. Before the download was completed, my Norton security program
flagged out the "Cracker" .exe as a "Severe Security Risk." As such, I
allowed Norton to quarantine and remove the program from my computer. I'd
like to have the program available to me, but certainly not at the risk of
infecting my PC. Dave, can you tell us what site was your source for
obtaining the "PDF Cracker" program; and, has your security system scanned
the program for security risks? 

 

Thanks,

 

Mike Mauro

I have a small program that I downloaded called "PDF Cracker". It removes
the lock-down password of a .PDF (Adobe Reader) document. I can then use
Adobe Writer to make book marks, highlights and annotations throughout the
document. This allows me to make notes in my "book" and put "tabs" on the
pages. Once unlocked, you can re-lock the document but allow bookmarks,
highlights and annotations. My company later distributed their documents
with those features turned on.



I have unlocked my Corvair Shop Manuals and have made a bunch of annotations
and bookmarks. Many of which came from discussions here on VV.



I could also, If I wanted to, copy text and graphics to use it elsewhere.
However, as an author myself (only published within my company) I respect
copyrights and will not do that.
